Gulf of Orosei boat tour: Five coves and swimming stops, SardiniaAn 8-hour boat excursion in the Gulf of Orosei, Sardinia, with a skipper guiding a small group of up to 12 people to five named coves for swimming and beach time.

The private van and flexible route let you linger at what holds you instead of keeping pace with a group, and the winery stop on Vesuvius slopes is optional, so you can spend the full day in the ruins if that is what you prefer.
